Revell and Netgalley have provided me with a copy of The All-American A Novel for review:
It is 1952 and nearly all the girls 16-year-old Bertha Harding knows dream of getting married, keeping house, and having children. Baseball is Bertha's dream. She reads every sports story in the paper, plays ball with the neighborhood boys, and even writes letters to the pitcher of the Workington Sweet Peas.
Life comes crashing down when Bertha's father is accused of being a Communist Party member by the House Un-American Activities Committee. Having been shunned and disgraced, the Hardings move into a small town where they only know their shy Uncle Matthew. When Bertha gets the chance to audition for the Workington Sweet Peas, she packs her bags for an unforgettable adventure.
I give The All American five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
